[F] [C]
[Bb]
[Gm] [Dm]
[F]
Girl, I can [C] understand how it might be kind [Bb] of hard to love a guy like me.
[Am]
I don't blame you [Gm] much for wanting to be free.
[Bb] I just wanted you to [F] know I've loved you better than your [C] own kid did [Bb] from the very start.
[Am]
It's my own [Gm] fault for what happens to my [Bb] heart.
You see, I'd always [F] known you'd go.
So you just [Am] do what you gotta [Bb] do, [Gm] my [C] sweet love.
[F]
It may [Dm] mean [C] I'll never kiss those sweet lips [F] again.
Yeah, that [Dm] little mouth [C] just chased that devil [Bb] dream of yours.
Come on back, come on back, see if you really [F]
care.
[Dm] Make it in a hurry.
[F] Now I know they make you feel, [C] make you feel kind of sad.
[Bb] Yeah, so you don't treat me like you should.
[Am] That way, [Gm] yeah, they make you feel no good.
[Bb] But they got no [F] way to go.
I've had [C] my eyes wide open from the very [Bb] start.
And girl, you never [Am] lied to me.
And the [Gm] part that we'll never, never [Bb] see is the [F] part you show me.
So [Am] you just do what you gotta [Bb] do, my wild, [F] sweet [C] love.
[F] It [Dm] may [C] mean I'll [Bb] never kiss those [F] sweet lips again.
[Dm] Yeah, that little mouth [C] chased that [Bb] devil dream of yours.
Come on [C] back, come on back, and see me when you [E] can.
[Dm]
[E] [Am] Do what you, do what you [Bb] gotta do, [Gm] my wild, [C] sweet love.
Oh, [F]
[Dm] it may [C] mean I'll never kiss those lips [F] again.
Yeah, that [Dm] little mouth [C] chased that [Bb] devil dream of yours.
Come on back, [C] come on back, see me when you can.
[Dm]
[F] Now I know they make you feel [C] sad, make you feel so bad.
[Bb] Say you don't treat me like you should.
[Am] They got ways [Gm] to make you feel no good.
[Bb] I guess they got no [F] way to know.
I've had my eyes [C] wide open from the start.
[Bb] Girl, you never lied to [Am] me.
But the part they'll never [Gm] see is the part that you show me.
[C] Oh, it's the part that [F] you show me.
Girl, I can't [C] understand how it might be kind [Bb] of hard.
To love a guy like [Am] me.
I don't blame [Gm] you much for wanting [C] to be free.
I just wanted you to know.
I've loved you better than your own kin [Bb] did.
From the very, very [Am]
start.
Oh, it's my [Gm] own fault for whatever happens [Bb] to my heart.
You see, I'd [F] always known you so.
So you just do.
[C] Oh, do.
[Bb] [N]
